The film is Ayer&#39;s World War II-themed script which was bought by QED International for USD 1 million. Taking place in 1945 after the fall of the Nazy regime, the film sees the five-man crew of an American tank named Fury that runs across a desperate German division. <img alt="Brad Pitt" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/apr/brad.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 402px;" /> Brad Pitt. Pic/Santa Banta Unlike many war-themed films, the movie digs deep into the complexities of battlefield heroism in a way that lands with a modern audience, reported Aceshowbiz. &quot;I want to bring a fresh execution to the genre. What these men went through is worthy of a complex, honest portrayal. This will have incredible, visceral action and complex rich characters,&quot; Ayer said. Produced by QED&#39;s Bill Block, John Lesher and Ethan Smith, the film will start its production in September and is expected to get a 2015 release. Meanwhile, Pitt, 49, will next be seen in Marc Forster&#39;s &quot;World War Z&quot;, which will be released in the United States on June 21.
